I pursed my lips and answered, “No need. He doesn't know.”
The nurse next to me timidly spoke, “Dr. Maximilian is accompanying Nurse Edvina Vesper for her face-to-face consultation.”
The scene was awkward for a moment. I just tried to still calm down.
Dr. Benjamin said, “It's better to inform Dr. Maximilian. After all, he also has the right to know.”
I finally agreed. Then I took a breath for a while.
“Dr. Maximilian, Mrs. Pauline had a miscarriage, you have to…”
But just as Dr. Benjamin opened his mouth, he sneered, “Can a miscarriage occur just by a gentle push? How much did Pauline Moonstone pay you to put on an act? I said I don't know her well, So, please leave me alone!”
The echo of beeping and his relentless taunts echoed through the operating room. I signed myself out and closed my eyes.
***
I opened my eyes. There were several messages on my cell phone.
Maximilian: [Pauline Moonstone, if you have time to find someone to act out why don't you come apologize to Jocelyn right now? If you don't apologize, I won't marry you.]
I forced myself to endure the pain in my lower abdomen. Then I walked outside the hospital by myself.
